It's a ridiculous book, and I'm sorry, but if someone reads it and feels that it's great and gives you a real history of how things were and why, you're better of not talking to them

I am sorry that you weren't capable of seeing the book for what it is and know that it has value. I didn't buy the slave interviews so I got the book that they quoted out of and read it too. It happens to be put out by the LSU press. It was a hard read and I wanted to put it down but I am glad that I didn't. I was able to sift through the bullshite and get something out of it.
